Wooloomooloo Mandala
Easy to love, lovely to make, and ideal for gifting too.

Wooloomooloo mandala was designed for my very first magazine publication in Indie Road Magazine, Australia. I fell totally in love with this amazing country while I was there and actually drove through Wooloomooloo, don’t you just love that name!!!! I think it’s just the cutest, so of course I had to nick it for a pattern name.
This little bit of floral fun is quick to work up and perfect for all those odd bits of yarn we all get stuck with after big projects, a perfectly pretty little stash buster. Great for gifts or just to pretty up a little dull spot in a window or bedroom or wherever you fancy.

Why you'll love this
It’s quick, pretty, and one of those patterns that gives you that lovely feeling of making something beautiful without needing a huge amount of time, yarn, or brain power.
It’s also a fabulous little stash-buster, perfect for using up those odd bits and bobs left over from bigger projects, and I do so love a pattern that turns leftovers into something gorgeous. With its floral feel and decorative charm, it’s perfect for gifting or for adding a little bit of happy to a window, bedroom, or any quiet corner that needs prettying up.
